Hey minky,

Good to see you. Smiley Happy

Hope you and your cowboy ware doing well. {#emotions_dlg.wub}

I watched the last few innings of that game! What a way to start the playoff series!

I was rooting for the Royals last night.


Doing great donna. Life is grand. Thanks for rooting for the Royals. It is fun to have two teams in post season play. We would love another chance at the Royals - nobody and I mean nobody will ever forget that botched call in '85. {#emotions_dlg.glare} Hope you and yours are also doing well.

Here is a snippet from last night's write up -

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Rain had started to fall at Kauffman Stadium as the echoing roars finally faded into the night. Eric Hosmer popped out of the dugout one last time, looked to the sky and let it soak in.

It had been 29 years since the Royals played a postseason game - nearly three decades spent mostly as a laughingstock. But on Tuesday night, already drenched in victory champagne, the young first baseman felt as if the whole world had watched their coming-out party.

Tyak did you read that other thread you are referencing? I just did and sorry but it got ridiculous with finger pointing and innuendos. There really was no point in it. It was just arguing back and forth.

One can be banned for the silliest of reasons.

I've noticed a lot of people missing, long-time posters.

But every day I see new nics here.

I wonder if it's the long-time posters and they are afraid to say who they are?

It beats me. She always was someone who was very interesting to read. Her posts on the Jewelry forum were very informative.

Could it be because of the heavy hand webbie rules with that so many have been banned only to come back with a new nic?

Is that what happened to you?

(I'm just asking. I read you have been here since 2004)

Cat fights on a daily basic over things as simple as crockpots, shampoo, favorite TV show, etc so how on earth can we expect there to ever be threads allowed for us to discuss current and world events.....I'm not talking politics...I'm talking about everyday things going on in the world around us that can't seem to be discussed without someone taking offense to differing opinions and vice versa.

I'm hesitant to name names of missing posters.

I don't want to get banned.

Re: RE: thread about forums not bustling with activity

If running the message board is such an onerous chore, why does QVC even bother to keep it going? Rather than all this heavy-handed "monitoring", just close it down and be done with it.

Oh wait--this board probably pulls in a lot of business (in theory, at least). Rather than go to the effort of finding and offering some fresh, interesting stuff, they expend a lot MORE energy poofing, left right and center. Stupid policy. (I wonder how long THIS post will last.)

I think so.

There are new nics that seem to get right into the thick of things. Then there are new nics who know what's going on but just want to stay under the radar.
